MMA4Real's September Middleweight MMA Rankings

UFC middleweight world champion Anderson "The Spider" Silva

UFC middleweight world champion Anderson "The Spider" Silva

1. Anderson Silva

2. Nate Marquardt

3. Dan Henderson

4. Yushin Okami

5. Yoshihiro Akiyama

6. Jorge Santiago

7. Robbie Lawler

8. Chael Sonnen

9. Demian Maia

10. Vitor Belfort

Quick Notes:

-#2 Nate Marquardt leap frogs #3 Dan Henderson with his highlight reel KO of top ten fighter Demian Maia.

-#4 Yushin Okami will take on #8 Chael Sonnen on the undercard of UFC 104.

-#10 Vitor Belfort will take on highly ranked LHW Rich Franklin at UFC 103, at a catchweight of 195lbs.

-I only dropped Maia one spot with the loss to Marquardt, simply because the fight ended so quickly.

Odd rankings.
While Maia was soundly defeated by your #2 guy, he defeated the guy that’s one level above him.

If Marquardt fought in UFC 100 and Henderson in UFC 102 would their rankings change? Note, Henderson did defeat the former MW champion.

(nonsense logic)

How can you rank Anderson Silva #1 when it is obvious that he is afraid to face Dan Henderson in a rematch? ;-)

Yushin Okami is not #1 or #2, he owns a victory over the MW champion!?!

I agree that Maia shouldn’t be under Chael Sonnen since he recently beat him.

Oh my god, VeeisAnimated are you for real? Surely you’re joking.

Yushin Okami is not #1 or #2, he owns a victory over the MW champion!?!

This is laughable. I hope you’re not that dumb.
